How can I get involved in this?

I have a RAID 0 system with 4 GB RAM and dual core @ 4.0 GHz. And in QEMU is
pretty slow. I haven't installed acceleration layer, but still... We really
need to have ready to go VMWare images etc. I tried to make it run in
VMWare, but it was a no go so far.

Well aside from what I reported - VMWare. I haven't dug, but I made it, and
IIRC it just hung on boot... actually just tried again. It boots, I get to
an all white screen with a black x that I can move with the mouse.... And
then no where.
